many days I've spent
without any aromatic scent
life bitter until now I'm hopelessness
all foes have deserted only boredom and loneliness
lack of brown buttered bread I'm exhausted for real
parenting not fruitful here
I'm hoping for looters to propose a deal
unemployment galore nothing to spare
I will resort to education
they said it is a map to other tribes
my tiny brain will expand with information
at least I will avoid being hired by paying bribes
its a challenge I'm hoping to conquer
folks were illiterates, but not me

Oh imagine what a world without illiterate be?
Go deep into thinking and see what a disastrous word,
Where no one is below another,
What a world it would be!
A world where the saddle saddler awaits saddling,
A lake that no longer abound with fish,
What a world it would be,
A world where abracadabra now exists.
Should we all abscond from its disaster,
Or should we be absent-minded
A place where they are acolytic leaders,
What a world it would be.
When it comes we must be called in the ad hoc meeting,
For no one can sell,buy and use
For a world without illiterates isn't one,
More disastrous than mere bomb.
No one can boss his boss for that's buzzing,
But every boss can re-boss his juniors
For that's how a world with illiterate revolves
Everyone needs them to survive

Trains used to be Chain Smokers.
But we helped them Quit
By Electrifying them.
Dustbins used to be Illiterates.
We taught them to Differentiate
Organic from Plastic.
Communications used to be Lazy.
We motivated them to Run
And to be Quick and Active.
Cultures used to be very Lonely.
We trained them to Mingle
And suspend their Superstitions.
Gold used to be Dusty and Buried.
We pulled it out of Poverty
And helped it Rise and Shine.
We being a Mentor to many,
Still fail to Guide ourselves
Into a Self Disciplined Path.

Once there was a doctor by name James Notease
before his cabin pasted big an “illustrated notice”
“Please remove your footwears “
Illustration of cross over slippers.
Bloody this crazy doctor is mocking the illiterates!

Blessed is the lamb led to the slaughter
-Eager smiles, cold visage
-I give truth to your mirage
-You have a golden ticket
-You have a chance to make your way
-A windowless room, I leave you there to pray
Worker ant is disposable
-The doors are fastened shut
-A lock you'll never cut
-The queen reeks of profit margins
-The triangle is ablaze
-Your endless numbered days
Surrender your huddled masses yearning to breathe free
-Give me your tired
-Perishable by fire
-Illiterates can’t read the fine print
-Give me your poor
-too dead to keep score
And I will pretend
The queen who is my friend
Had no idea why the front doors were locked
And the room had no windows
And I will defend
To uncertain ends
There but for the grace of God goes Me
In empathy for the worker, and the queen
